FROM HOLLYWOOD CRUSH: After months of filming in rain-drenched Portland, Oregon and Vancouver, "New Moon" stars Nikki Reed and Kellan Lutz must have felt right at home in Manhattan as a persistent drizzle lingered over the city. But unlike shoots for their vampire romance, the onscreen duo stayed toasty and dry inside the Times Square Toys "R" Us greeting fans and signing autographs for the final leg of the "Twilight" mall tour.
About 500 lovely ladies and a few fellows (not a surprising ratio by now) waited for hours in a line that snaked around the block, with some like Julianne Castillo and Vanesa Rayes, both 18 from Jamaica, Queens, having been outside since before 6 a.m.
"We got up at four o'clock in the morning. We were outside by 5:30 in the morning," Julianne said. "We want to be the first ones on line. That's when all the excitement is there from the actors. We want to have the energy on that paper."

Last week, we got our first look at Alan Rickman's Caterpillar in the upcoming Tim Burton-directed "Alice in Wonderland." It was a slightly blurry magazine scan, not necessarily how you'd want to have your first glimpse of the beloved character.
Well you don't have to worry about that anymore. Disney finally issued the full, hi-res images, three posters which combine into a triptych. They'd previously been available exclusively on the Disloyal Subjects of the Mad Hatter Facebook page, but now we have them here for you. Check out the lovely triptych below, or click it to check out our newly updated "Alice" flipbook, complete with a better look at that Caterpillar poster.
Yesterday, we paid a visit to New York City's Museum of Modern Art to take a peek at the upcoming Tim Burton career retrospective exhibit (running from November 22 -- Sunday! -- to April 26, 2010). We've got interviews and video... and PICTURES! There's some crazy stuff in there, including a concept drawing of Brainiac from Burton's aborted "Superman Lives" project.

The Blu-ray/DVD isn't the only "Star Trek"-related piece of awesome hitting stores today. Serious fans can also pick up "Star Trek: The Art of the Film," from Titan Books. We ran a few exclusive monster design sketches last week to psych you up, and now we have a couple more looks at the book.
These are no sketches though. Oh no... we've got photos to share today. Two of them. First up is a look at the rebooted bridge of the U.S.S. Enterprise, from various angles. Pretty badass, but it doesn't compare to the second one. It's a full Enterprise crew cast shot taken on the bridge, only Abrams himself is in the captain's chair. As he should be. The poster above you might've seen before, but I love the design of it so much that I'm running it to go with this post. Hit the jump for the exclusive hotness. Read more...
Have you been watching "V"? Good show so far. An interesting fusion of the original's basic idea with underlying themes made relevant for today's audiences. I'm looking forward to seeing where things go.
Tonight, they'll go to seemingly amicable places as the Visitors are granted legal visitation status on the planet Earth. I somehow doubt that will last very long.

FROM HOLLYWOOD CRUSH: It’s taken a little over a year for Robert Pattinson to be considered a staple heartthrob worldwide. With the crazy success of the “Twilight” book series came the crazy success of the first film, catapulting its stars into instant, albeit unbidden, fame. Though he’s on the road now promoting “New Moon” (out this week!), we figured we would take some time to look at the evolution of Robert Pattinson.
Click the picture below to follow the evolution of Rob in pictures!
Born on May 13, 1986 in London, England, the hunk started out his career rather appropriately by following in his mother’s modeling footsteps at age 12. Ironically, he would later come out and explain that the reason this stint in the fashion world lasted only four years was because he was tall and feminine and it was at a time where “the androgynous look was cool.” Once he started looking more like masculine man we have grown to know and love, the job pool dried up.

MTV delves deep into the "Twilight" universe with two can't-miss specials: "Love Bites" chronicles the budding rumored romance between Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart on Monday at 10 p.m. ET/PT, while "New Moon Revealed" will feature die-hard fans as they gather to meet the saga's stars Monday at 10:30 p.m. ET/PT.
You know the old adage: "a picture is worth a thousand words." But what happens when a picture leaves you speechless?
Wait... what were we talking about? Read more...
Seriously, the November 25 release of "Ninja Assassin" is really close. Enough so that I can taste the blood in my mouth, which will surely be there after the unbridled awesome that director James McTeigue brings to the screen leaves my ass kicked. I didn't love his "V for Vendetta," but it was definitely beautiful. "Ninja Assassin" is similarly eye-catching, and the story will probably fare better since it's not bound to any source material.
For now though, feast your eyes upon the joys of real ultimate ninja action in our newly updated flipbook gallery.
The United Kingdom is Robert Pattinson's stomping grounds. No big surprise that he turned out when the "New Moon" cast tour swung through London. He was joined there by fellow stars Kristen Stewart and Taylor Lautner as well. And a legion of shrieking fans, as you can see in the pic below.

FROM HOLLYWOOD CRUSH: The "New Moon" tour hit Illinois last night with Ashley Greene and (newly blond) Kellan Lutz taking center stage as hundreds of screaming fans surely broke a few decibel records in appreciation.
MTV News caught up with the photogenic pair moments after their autograph session ended in the mall's "New Moon" paraphernalia packed Hot Topic. We'll share our fun-filled conversation with the duo soon right here.
